A line of constant longitude on a spheroid (or sphere). More generally, a meridian of a surface of revolution is the intersection of the surface with a plane containing the ...

An asymmetrical apodization function defined by M(x,b,d)={0 for x<-b; (x-b)/(2b) for -b<x<b; 1 for b<x<b+2d; 0 for x<b+2d, (1) where the two-sided portion is 2b long (total) ...

When a closed interval [a,b] is partitioned by points a<x_1<x_2<...<x_(n-1)<b, the lengths of the resulting intervals between the points are denoted Deltax_1, Deltax_2, ..., ...

The metabidiminished icosahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(62). The unit metabidiminished icosahedron has volume V=1/6(5+2sqrt(5)) (1) and Dehn ...

The metabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron is a convex equilateral solid that is Johnson solid J_(81). The unit metabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron has volume ...

Somewhere on the Earth, there is a pair of antipodal points having simultaneously the same temperature and pressure.

A particular way of doing something, sometimes also called an algorithm or procedure. (According to Petkovšek et al. (1996), "a method is a trick that has worked at least ...

Let f be a nonnegative and continuous function on the closed interval [a,b], then the solid of revolution obtained by rotating the curve f(x) about the x-axis from x=a to x=b ...

The method of exhaustion was an integral-like limiting process used by Archimedes to compute the area and volume of two-dimensional lamina and three-dimensional solids.

Let R be a plane region bounded above by a continuous curve y=f(x), below by the x-axis, and on the left and right by x=a and x=b, then the volume of the solid of revolution ...
